Modeling Healthcare Processes in BPEL: A Colon Cancer Screening Case Study
نویسندگان
چکیده
In healthcare, process modeling has been recognized as a preliminary and fundamental step to provide suitable solutions to the process of designing and building innovative healthcare systems. To achieve such goals the application to clinical practice of the concepts of Service Oriented Architecture has been proposed. Business Process Execution Language (BPEL) is a standard for process description and service orchestration. In this paper we present the application of BPEL to a real case by designing a system for the management of colon cancer screening program in the local Health Care Service Trust.

BPEL is being widely used to specify business processes through the orchestration, composition and coordination of web services. It is now common practice to begin the process of modeling the work ows within a set of BPEL business processes using UML Activity Diagrams since they can be automatically mapped down onto BPEL code. However activity diagrams were not intended to explicitly model user...

Background and Purpose: Each year, about 50,000 new cases of cancer occur in Iran and the most common being the gastrointestinal (GI) tract (38%). Colorectal cancers account for the 3rd and 4th most prevalent cancers in Iranian men and women, respectively. Since genetic and environmental factors lead to differences in colorectal cancer occurrence in different geographic regions and races, we ...
متن کاملOn Modeling Web Service based Processes for Healthcare
In terms of business process-modeling, healthcare is a rather complex sector of activity. Indeed, modeling healthcare processes presents some special requirements dictated by the complex and dynamic nature of these processes as well as by the specificity and diversity of the actors involved in these processes. We discuss these requirements and propose a framework for evaluating processmodeling ...

Background: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been introduced as a new genomic source for cancer. Therefore, it was decided to conduct a study to evaluate the rs3746444 polymorphism of miR-499 in patients with colon cancer in comparison with healthy subjects. Methods: This case-control study was conducted to investigate rs3746444 polymorphism of miR-...
متن کاملFully-automatic Translation of Open Workflow Net Models into Simple Abstract BPEL Processes
On the one hand, Petri net models have a successful history in the modeling, simulation, and verification of workflows and business processes. On the other hand, BPEL is the de facto standard for describing and implementing Web service-based business processes. With abstract BPEL processes, BPEL can also be used as modeling language. However, being a complicated language with many syntactic con...
